No keys. Push to start. And it’s Black and Yellow? The New York Auto Show must be channeling its inner Wiz Khalifa. Or just ready to promote 2009 technology that has become mainstream in its advertising. Now that we have push-to-start as commonplace equipment, I wonder what year the poster is going to have the vehicle without the steering wheel. Or when it becomes the New York Transportation Pod show. Ah progress- we look forward to it, but sometimes we do miss our keys.

According to the show producers “We’re excited to release the 2014 Show art that will be the main focal point of this year’s Show poster and advertising. Look out for it in magazines, newspapers, on our website, outdoor billboards, subway trains, LIRR, NY Waterway and Metro-North Railroad. This year’s Show merchandise including t-shirts, hats, pins, the Official Show program and poster will also feature the eye-catching art and will be available for purchase on our website and on-site at the Show. One question.. are YOU ready to get the Show STARTed?” Yes. I’ll be there April 16 for the early-bird press stuff.
